Tate Fitzwilliam
Name: Tate Fitzwilliam
Nickname: Tuff
Age: 18
Birthplace: Mysteria, America
Sex: Male
Occupation: Student
Appearance: Tate is fairly short at five foot three, shorter than all his brothers. But he has a good frame and exercises a lot. He has very dark brown hair, almost black and crystal blue eyes. He’s got the perfect boy next door face. Pretty to look at but nothing too amazing. Though his smile is something to be seen. At the moment he has a little facial hair going on too.
Clothing is usually high fashion. He does love jeans and music memorabilia t-shirts. He’ll wear sweaters and jumpers and cardigans as well but only stylish ones.
He’ll wear a little jewellery, surfer jewellery style and silver. He has a selection of sunglasses, gloves and scarves. He loves his scarves!
Personality:
Tate is the big brother. He’s the one whose never been allowed to get away with anything. Always been told to behave. To set a good example for his brother’s. To look after his brothers and to be more mature than them. So there is a sense of Tate acting far older than he is at times. He does have a sense of maturity but he’s also capable of acting like an idiot at times. He’s highly competitive with his class mates, sports mates, brothers even at times with his Father. He seems to believe being the older brother he should be the best.
He also has a flip side to his personality though. He can be pigheaded, very stubborn and so convinced he is right he’ll blank off what you’re saying. He has trouble expressing how he feel. Sadness, stress and frustration come off as anger and he shouts when angry as though it’ll help him get his message across.
He’s a doting, loyal and loving brother though, he may not say it a lot but he’ll pick them up in his car if they’re stuck. He’ll buy them treats if he thinks it’s something they’ll like. He’ll help them with their homework and watch over them. He’ll call them names of course and beat them up, but anyone else try and do that he’ll break your face.
As a friend he can be a little annoying with having to beat you but so long as you leave games at the door he’s a sensitive understanding and generous guy.
These bad aspects of his personality are due to a poor self esteem and actually low confidence. He masks it by trying to force himself to be the best and not allowing himself to loose. He thinks if he looses and people see him for what he is, a nothing sort of person with no real redeeming qualities no one will like him. So he has to win and he has to be the best then he’s got something to offer people.
Also, he’s struggling with his sexuality which is a little daunting and peer pressure effects him.

History:
To say Tate was happy when his brother’s were born would be a lie. He found them annoying little freaks that broke all of his toys and wouldn’t stop screaming. He tried to loose them once by putting them in to a toy wagon and cycling down the end of the street and leaving them there. He was told off quite a lot for things he tried to do with them. He tried to give them away to the neighbours. Sell them in a yard sale and offer another parent all the money in his piggy bank to take them. He didn’t really like the smelly boys because they were so close and did everything together. It wasn’t until they got a little older and he got older that he realised he was just jealous of their closeness and became a proper big brother to them. Watching out for them and including them in his schemes. Then he used them in his plans and pranks. They were good little goons to have on his side. Slowly he began to accept them and play with them and love them as his little brothers!
When Fax was born he took an instant liking to him. In fact he got on remarkably well with Fax. He learnt sign language quickly and grew very close to his little brother. He used to be a little terror with pranks and practical jokes. He’d think of ingenious ways to play a prank on someone or to cause fun. However he grew up a lot sooner than his younger brothers and became a teenager. He didn’t pay as much attention to them anymore and went out dating and playing sports and hanging around older boys. He discovered he was an elemental much later than his brother’s and doesn’t have as high a level that he believes he should have at this point.
Now he’s not so concerned with peer pressure but is still very competitive. He does miss that he’s not as close to his brother’s anymore and seems to be less able to express his feelings with people. In recent months he’s begun to accept his sexuality. He’s always known he had gay feelings but knew that during teenage years sexuality can change and be shaped by many things and maybe he wouldn’t be gay. But now, he knows he is. However he’s very firmly in the closet. He’s not brave enough to tell anyone yet.
So he’s only got one year of high school left. He’s very stressed and determined to do well and has to study with a houseful of brothers. It’s not easy to do.
Flaws:
Alpha Male: Tate needs to be winning. Whether it’s getting the best grades or being the best on the team his competitiveness can sometimes put a lot in jeopardy like the outcome of a game. Plus when he thinks he’s right it’s like talking to a brick wall only less responsive and more stubborn.
Low self image: It may not be apparent on the surface, but Tate always puts himself down. Even though he gets high grades, he’s popular and has never really been in trouble he doesn’t think too much of himself.
Poor communicator: Tate has very poor communication skills. It leads to him not saying the right thing or explaining himself properly. He has a hard time telling people how he feels and saying what he really wants. It leads to people thinking he’s a bit unapproachable and aloof. This is why he shows acts of kindness or love because he’s scared to tell someone how he feels.
Merits:
Smart, he’s very smart. In fact he’s hoping to become a doctor one day. Though money may hold him back. But he’s capable of applying himself and becoming anything he could want to be.
Focus: Tate’s got great focus. Amazing in fact. It comes in handy when studying or playing in a match.
Sexual Orientation: Gay
Preferred PB (played-by): Tyron Leitso
